Review of I Want to Live! (1958) by Jeff B — 09 Nov 2008

Great performance by Susan Hayward (in her Oscar winning role) carries this true story of a woman accused of murdering an elderly woman and is sent to the gas chamber (oh come on, I'm not giving anything away, look at the title).

The film certainly takes its time, about half of the film is leading up to her execution. But it's a good film. I enjoyed the actress who played the other Barbara, she did a nice job. Worth a look.
